Description

marsupsin: structure given in first source; isolated from Pterocarpus marsupium; RN given for (-)-isomer [Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), National Library of Medicine, extracted Dec-2023]

marsupsin : A member of the class of 1-benzofurans that is 1-benzofuran-3(2H)-one, substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 2 and 6, a 4-hydroxybenzyl group at position 2 and a methoxy group at position 4. Isolated from the heartwood of Pterocarpus marsupium, it exhibits antihyperglycemic and antihyperlipidemic activities.

FloraRankFlora DefinitionFamilyFamily Definition
PterocarpusgenusA plant genus of the family FABACEAE. Members contain TRITERPENES.[MeSH]FabaceaeThe large family of plants characterized by pods. Some are edible and some cause LATHYRISM or FAVISM and other forms of poisoning. Other species yield useful materials like gums from ACACIA and various LECTINS like PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS from PHASEOLUS. Many of them harbor NITROGEN FIXATION bacteria on their roots. Many but not all species of beans belong to this family.[MeSH]
